Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 60,116,275, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 60,116,275 | |
| -1 | -60,116,275 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 60,116,275.
Example:
1 x 60,116,275 = 60,116,275
and
-1 x -60,116,275 = 60,116,275
Notice both answers equal 60,116,275
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 60,116,275 and divide it by 2:
60,116,275 ÷ 2 = 30,058,137.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 30,058,137.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 60,116,275 | |
| -1 | -60,116,275 |
Now, we try dividing 60,116,275 by 3:
60,116,275 ÷ 3 = 20,038,758.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,038,758.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 60,116,275 | |
| -1 | -60,116,275 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
60,116,275 ÷ 4 = 15,029,068.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,029,068.75 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 60,116,275 | |
| -1 | 60,116,275 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 145 | 283 | 293 | 725 | 1,415 | 1,465 | 7,075 | 7,325 | 8,207 | 8,497 | 41,035 | 42,485 | 82,919 | 205,175 | 212,425 | 414,595 | 2,072,975 | 2,404,651 | 12,023,255 | 60,116,275 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -145 | -283 | -293 | -725 | -1,415 | -1,465 | -7,075 | -7,325 | -8,207 | -8,497 | -41,035 | -42,485 | -82,919 | -205,175 | -212,425 | -414,595 | -2,072,975 | -2,404,651 | -12,023,255 | -60,116,275 |
